If you are used to adding heavy cream to your creamy dishes, then this recipe will teach you a new trick. The combo of sour cream, cream of chicken soup, and cheese, is what makes this creamy and cheesy chicken so delightful, that even the pickiest ones will not resist. You can add some mushrooms for an earthier flavor if you want to. The chicken will be just as yummy.

Ingredients

1 tbsp Butter

6 Chicken Breasts

2 tbsp Olive Oil

2 Large Green Onions, chopped

1 small Onion, chopped

1 cup Sour Cream

10 ounces Cream of Chicken Soup

1 cup grated Cheddar Cheese

¼ cup Parmesan Cheese

4 ounces Cream Cheese

1 tbsp minced Garlic

½ tsp Black Pepper

Salt, to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat your oven to 180 C or 350 F degrees. Grease a 13x9-inch baking dish with the butter, and set aside. Wash the chicken and pat it dry with some paper towels.

2. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook until no longer pink on all sides. Season them with pepper and salt, and transfer to the baking dish.

3. Combine the remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Pour the cheesy mixture over the chicken. Turn the chicken over to make sure that it is well-coated on all sides. Place in the oven and bake for about 40 minutes. Serve and enjoy!

Recipe Notes

To be sure that your chicken is fully cooked you can use an instant-read thermometer. Insert it into the center of the chicken breast and read it. If it reads at least 75 C or 165 F degrees that means that the chicken is cooked. If not, let it bake for a couple of more minutes.
